  • This richly fruited and highly concentrated Porto is brimming with layers of dark berries and dried fruits. It is full-bodied with ripe, sweet tannins and an everlasting finish.

The grapes were carefully sorted, and then 50% was fermented with the stalks imparting complexity and structure. Fermentation occurred using Quinta do Vallado inoculated yeasts in lagares with periodic foot treading. Once the desired level of Baumé was reached, the grape spirit, known as the 'Benefit', was added, resulting in a naturally sweet wine. The wine spent 21 months in stainless steel vats, retaining the richness of the fruit.

Winery

Quinta do Vallado’s estate covers 65 hectares of vineyard. The vines for this Porto are from a vineyard in the Valley of Rio Torto, where the landscape is characterised by the terraces that make up the vineyards. The vines are planted at altitudes ranging between 80 and 400 metres on south and west-facing slopes, which maximise exposure to the sun, assisting the grapes’ ripening potential. The soils are made up of schist, a
slate-like metamorphic rock that is rich in nutrients and offers useful water retention properties. The vines are pruned according to the Double Cordon system and are harvested at optimal maturity into small crates to protect the quality. This wine is made from a field blend of old vines, the predominant varieties are: Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Sousão, Tinta Roriz and Tinta Barroca.
